Hi,

If you want to prototype slides quickly, use slides that only show diagrams or pictures, and possibly a handful of words :).

For that, you will basically only need a good drawing tool or relevant pictures. On Mac, I use Omnigraffle and I display slides with Keynote.

In any case, try to start from empty slides :) :

Hi,

to create presentation / slides for courses I use Latex + HA-prosper for years. But it seems I should change to have some nicer looking slides. I also want to have a pool of slides where I can cherry pick to create a new presentation.

For Latex, beamer seems to have more audience than ��old prosper.

I'm not against office suite tools if it's good (I remember to struggle with Power Point '97, was crap). I've choosed Latex / text files as it's easy / quick to move content from one slides to another. And I can use Emacs powers.

I feel creating diagrams is always a pain. For my last presentation I've drawn each slide on a pocket book then scan each page :)

What do you use ? What is really effective (tools and/or process) to prototype quickly slides ?

Cheers,

Laurent Laffont
